Press Release
The highly anticipated Cyprus Cocktail Festival, now in its 5th year, returns to deliver an unforgettable evening of signature cocktails from 20 of the best bars in Cyprus and beyond. This prestigious event, which has become a fixture in the country’s social calendar, will feature top cocktail bars from Cyprus, Greece, Spain, and France, bringing an international flair to the festival. Taking place outdoors at the Nicosia Municipal Theatre on Wednesday, October 9, 2024, from 6 PM until late, the evening promises great drinks, top-tier entertainment, and music curated by Deejay Radio 93.5, Cyprus's number-one DJ station.
As part of the Digital Agenda Cyprus Summit, the 5th Cyprus Cocktail Festival is excited to announce the participation of Eminente, a premium Cuban rum brand, distributed exclusively in Cyprus by PPD GLOBAL.
About Eminente
Eminente is a standout among Cuban rums, known for having the highest ratio of aguardiente (Cuban eaux-de-vie molasses) among all its competitors. With a clear vision of becoming the world’s most celebrated super-premium rum, Eminente is crafted in the heart of Cuba, on an island known locally as "Isla del Cocodrilo" due to its distinctive crocodile shape. Its beautifully designed bottle, featuring embossed scales, is a tribute to the island’s native wildlife.
Eminente is also one of only six Cuban rums to carry the coveted D.O.P. Ron de Cuba label, guaranteeing that every stage of production—from sourcing raw materials to blending—takes place on Cuban soil.
Eminente Reserva
The Eminente Reserva is a rich and full-bodied Cuban rum with an exceptionally long finish. Made with 70% aged aguardiente, with a minimum aging of seven years, it offers deep flavors of chocolate, roasted coffee, and toasted almonds. It’s a versatile rum, perfect for sipping neat, over ice, or mixed into classic cocktails like the Daiquiri.
At the Cyprus Cocktail Festival
At this year’s Cyprus Cocktail Festival, Eminente will be the star ingredient in exclusive, refreshing cocktails, crafted by mixologists from The Bar In Front Of The Bar, a renowned bar from Athens, and Blurry Lights, a popular Nicosia hotspot famous for its cocktail creations.
The festival is proudly sponsored by N-ice pure ice cubes and Three Cents soft drinks, ensuring the highest quality ingredients in every cocktail. Payments will be fully contactless, courtesy of JCC.
The event is supported by Visit Nicosia and Cyprus’s premier entertainment guide, Wiz Guide, with the festival’s curation handled by Deejay Radio and the Athens Cocktail Festival.
As part of the Digital Agenda Cyprus Summit, the Cyprus Cocktail Festival is more than just a night of great drinks and music. It aims to bridge the conference with the city of Nicosia, creating a vibrant atmosphere full of energy, fun, and community spirit. Having earned a spot as "one of the 15 best cocktail festivals in the world" according to international guides, this event promises to be a night to remember.
